I will once again note that during our back to back 8th place seasons I was told multiple times that the OT faithful does not and would not ever boo. In the years since its been like Christmas panto season there.
Reality: every fanbase just needs it to get bad enough.
@timstillman_@yorkshiregunner The musical equivalent of the “shut up and hoop”, argument. I hate it. And usually telling to see who doesn’t want whom to talk.
Fair to say folk aren’t feeling positive about our front line. This really does feel like a knife edge game in terms of the result, just without much actual tension. One small moment will decide it. And that’s not good!
Arsenal are the only team yet to concede goals in the Champions League this season. They have continued from last season's unbeaten record of the only team that went undefeated in regular time. Arsenal have scored 4 goals and have concedeeld none.
Despite the media labeling Arsenal as boring, Opta has ranked Arsenal as the best club in the world right now with 100 rating. Bayern Munich is second with 99.1 rating followed by Manchester City, Barcelona and PSG.
They don't even have the best attacking force but until you play them. You can compare their keeper to Martinez until you meet them. You can compare Saka to your best winger until you play them.
Arsenal look beatable on paper until you play them.
I could sit here and tell you a bunch of funny and heartwarming stories about Mr Friar, but maybe it’s more telling to say that today I’ve been crying my eyes out for a man I worked for over 30 years ago.
He was the best boss ever, and by some margin.
RIP Mr Friar 💔
